Couples

Intimate relationships offer some of the greatest challenges in life, and also the greatest opportunities for deep healing and personal growth.  Couples often operate from unspoken agreements and lose themselves in stagnant ruts.  My role as your therapist is to create a safe framework to facilitate as you and your partner:

• Develop interpersonal skills that encourage both partners to be proactive in discussing thoughts and feelings and getting needs met.   
• Construct supportive loving habits of interaction and create a strong, satisfying union grounded in mutual respect, emotional congruency (where what we say matches how we feel and how we behave) and active loving. 
• Understand and heal patterns of conflict and disengagement.
• Nurture individual growth as a pathway to creating a healthy connection and strengthening the “team”.
• Identify triggers and develop more effective ways of communicating needs and feelings.
